Freud DS1209CGP 12 in Carbide Reciprocating Blade 50-pack

Product Description

The FREUD DS1209CGP is a 12-inch carbide-tipped reciprocating saw blade engineered for general-purpose demolition cutting in both wood and metal. Running a 6-9 TPI variable tooth pattern, it handles a wide range of material thicknesses and densities without requiring a blade swap. The oversized blade body adds rigidity during aggressive cuts, and the Perma-Shield non-stick coating reduces friction and heat buildup. This blade is built for trade-level workloads where downtime from frequent blade changes is not acceptable. Licensed contractors, demolition crews, and remodeling trades are the primary users.

This blade is suited for residential and light commercial demolition applications where the workpiece may contain embedded nails, mixed fasteners, or unknown ferrous metal content. Typical scenarios include framing teardown, wall opening cuts, subfloor removal, and general rough-in demo where both wood and steel are encountered in the same cut path. The DS1209CGP is sold in a 50-blade pack, making it a practical stocking unit for service vehicles and job-site tool cribs that go through reciprocating blades at volume.

Key Features

• Carbide-tipped teeth rated for extended life in nail-embedded wood and ferrous metal
• Variable 6-9 TPI tooth design handles varying material thickness and density in a single blade
• Oversized blade body provides added stiffness and reduces deflection during aggressive cuts
• Perma-Shield non-stick coating lowers friction and heat, extending blade life in demanding cuts
• 12-inch cutting length suits deep demo cuts through framing, sheathing, and structural members
• 50-blade pack quantity supports high-volume job-site use and fleet stocking

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose reciprocating saw blade compatible with standard universal shank reciprocating saws. Fits tool-brand universal shank interfaces common across professional-grade reciprocating saws.

Installation Notes

Blade installation and removal should be performed with the tool unplugged or the battery pack removed. Verify the blade clamp or quick-release mechanism is fully seated and locked before operating. Wear appropriate eye and hand protection when cutting nail-embedded or ferrous material, as carbide teeth and embedded fasteners can produce aggressive chip and spark ejection. Follow applicable OSHA and job-site safety protocols for demolition cutting operations.
